Forever_The_Lamb wow, that is great and I have been there many times when I had to write something for a class .&FrugalMommy 's idea is good, but like the broken pencils and paper cuts aren't worth it. Another idea would be to either use a flash drive or even your own e-mail, to write and save your idea to. That is what I do..:P

&FrugalMommy Normally, I have a little (okay, a lot of) free time at work and can immediately post what comes to mind...last 2 days have been a little busy, and I know I had a great idea Monday but I'll be durned if I can recall what it was now >.<

Hm... I'd suggest getting a notebook to write your ideas in, but that could be a new can of worms. You'd need a writing utensil, which would invariably be lost/broken/out of ink/sticking out of BillyJoe JimBob's left nostril (ewwww...). Or you'd get a paper cut and need a trip to the emergency room. Or the notebook would be just the right size to prop up the wobbly table, so it'd be sacrificed for the greater good... :P
